[PATCH] net: stmmac: don't attach interface until resume finishes

commit 31096c3e8b1163c6e966bf4d1f36d8b699008f84 upstream.

Commit 14b41a2959fb ("net: stmmac: Delete txtimer in suspend()") was the
first attempt to fix a race between mod_timer() and setup_timer()
during stmmac_resume(). However the issue still exists as the commit
only addressed half of the issue.

Same race can still happen as stmmac_resume() re-attaches interface
way too early - even before hardware is fully initialized.  Worse,
doing so allows network traffic to restart and stmmac_tx_timer_arm()
being called in the middle of stmmac_resume(), which re-init tx timers
in stmmac_init_coalesce().  timer_list will be corrupted and system
crashes as a result of race between mod_timer() and setup_timer().

Fix this by deferring netif_device_attach() to the end of
stmmac_resume().
